Here's another common misnomer that gets thrown around in regard to Chavis and the 2011 BCSNC Game. No one is going to come to the defense of the worst offensive performance I have ever witnessed.

HOWEVER, go back and watch the first quarter of that game. Chavis is full of shite. Alabama ran roughshod over his shell shocked D in between the 20s ALL NIGHT. He looked just as bad as the offensive staff in that first half. The D just managed to stem the bleeding by holding up in the red zone and forcing FGs.

He made the same mistake as the rest of the staff. Chavis went into that game expecting a repeat of the first matchup. Obviously Bama had other plans.

He does come out the other side looking a hell of a lot better than Miles and Studs, considering the D kept us in life support until the 4 quarter. However, he shouldn't get a complete pass for the first pass. Fatigue didn't have anything to do with that. He just plain got out coached by Jim McElwain.

As for last year, he again, gets a pass for a young defense. He earned that pass with good to great performances before and after, but it still looks bad that he took his ball and left after the O kept him afloat just one year ago.

I'm convinced you have some type of personal issue with the guy now. Bama was scoring in the 40's and 50's with regularity that season. Holding them to 21 is a good game. It's literally making my brain hurt to see what kind of standard you are holding them to.

Umm.. So you're bitching because he had good red zone defense?

i recall the same thing happening in the 9-6 first game, only difference is alabama missed a bunch of fg's that game, which they made in the bcscg.
